HONDA Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) unveiled H'ness CB350, a retro cruiser, powered by 4-stroke, 348.36cc SI Engine on September 30, 2020. The price starts around Rs 1.90 lakh.
In 1968 until 1973, the original CB350 was produced and equipped with OHC air-cooled 180-degree parallel twin 325.6cc engine. The CB350 became one of the HONDA's best selling models due to its reliable engine and dual Keihin carburetors.
The word H'ness is the short name of 'Highness'. Truly, its name matches to address its high quality. It is good to bring back the legacy of the CB series, which is popular for having a vintage look, reliable, and enjoyable for commuting and touring. Adding the retro charm of H'ness CB350 in the line-up of the CB series, became mainstream in the modern 350cc class recently.
